The Aftershock Tour was a concert tour performed by the heavy metal band Motörhead in support of their album, Aftershock.

Background

Motörhead were due to embark on a European tour alongside Saxon, followed by a tour in Germany and Scandinavia due to last until mid December 2013 but the dates were postponed and rescheduled for February and March 2014 due to Lemmy's health problems.{{Cite web|url=https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/motorhead-rescheduled-european-tour-canceled/|title=MOTÖRHEAD: Rescheduled European Tour Canceled|last=Blabbermouth|date=2014-01-24|website=BLABBERMOUTH.NET|access-date=2020-01-16}}

However, in January 2014, Motörhead announced the cancellation of the new February and March dates of their European tour as Lemmy was still to reach full recovery from diabetes related health problems.{{Cite web|url=https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/motorhead-rescheduled-european-tour-canceled/|title=MOTÖRHEAD: Rescheduled European Tour Canceled|last=Blabbermouth|date=2014-01-24|website=BLABBERMOUTH.NET|access-date=2020-01-16}} At the Los Angeles show on April 11, both Slash and Lemmy's son Paul Inder appeared and played some songs.{{Cite web|title=Motörhead, Graveyard & Unlocking The Truth Perform At Club Nokia|url=http://metalassault.com/gig_reviews/2014/04/12/motorhead-graveyard-unlocking-the-truth-perform-at-club-nokia/|last=admin|date=2014-04-12|website=Metal Assault: Gig Reviews|language=en-US|access-date=2020-05-07}} Slash would return again at bands show at Coachella Festival.{{Cite web|title=Coachella 2014: Motörhead, Slash kill it at the festival with old and new tunes|url=https://www.sbsun.com/arts-and-entertainment/20140414/coachella-2014-motxf6rhead-slash-kill-it-at-the-festival-with-old-and-new-tunes|date=2014-04-14|website=San Bernardino Sun|language=en-US|access-date=2020-05-07}} At Birmingham former members Eddie Clarke and Phil Taylor appeared on stage with Eddie playing "Ace of Spades".{{Cite web|title=MOTÖRHEAD Rejoined By 'FAST' EDDIE CLARKE, PHIL 'PHILTHY' TAYLOR At Birmingham Concert (Video)|url=https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/motorhead-rejoined-by-fast-eddie-clarke-phil-philthy-taylor-at-birmingham-concert-video/|last=Blabbermouth|date=2014-11-10|website=BLABBERMOUTH.NET|access-date=2020-05-07}}
